No comments usually meant noone cared enough about the implemented
feature to comment on it. Personally, I'd never use a compression
algorithm that hogs as much memory as XZ does. "Good enough" really
is just that, imo, and bzip2 and gzip are widely available pretty
much everywhere, whereas I've never heard of XZ before.

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
